A clear, crisp autumn evening and a bright moon above. After some gentle persuasion, I took the chance to capture it.

I did try βringingβ the Addmaster 01 Hotline number β but strangely no one answered. So I repaired and restored this vintage 1972 Addmaster calculator myself. It uses an early gas discharge βPanaplexβ orange display. #VintageElectronics #VintageCalculator #Panaplex

I'm displaying 3D mesh shapes in this C# app on this repaired/restored #VectorScope from the 1970s. Combining new and old - a match in electronic heaven. #3Dgraphics #programming #electronics

Transistor checking using the 1970s made, and the more recent homemade. Can you guess which one is newer?

Did I watch the FCukup this weekend? Of course not! Instead, being an uber-geek I built this Z80-MBC2 board and revisited the groovy 70s computing era. Definitely a nostalgic trip down computer memory lane.

Just repaired and restored this 1973 Sinclair Cambridge Type-2 vintage calculator. It uses a TMS0801NC calculator chip by Texas Instruments which requires -10V and -15V supplies since it is a PMOS device.

Forget #ChatGPT and Python! Back in 1993 we used C++, 5ΒΌ floppy disks, and a lot of blood, sweat & tears to train a neural network. https://www.i4cy.com/xor_nn/
